Competing Claims in Challenging A Will Matters

There are a number of factors that the Court is to consider once it is clear that someone is eligible and that the will fails to make adequate provision for that person. 

It is quite common for there to be competing claims between: -

• the spouse and the children
• the parents and their own children
• child of deceased vs child of deceased
